I think, these are excellent questions of common interest and would   
appreciate if knowledgeable folks communicated the asked information  on-line.

Can  anyone provide an estimate for the number of routers in
the  DFZ?

Transit routers  (DFZ)

Multihomed border  routers  (DFZ)

Singlehomed border routers

Can anyone  suggest the range of number of interfaces these
routers have?  For  instance, what is the largest number of
interfaces on an operational  router?

What would be a typical range of interface numbers  for
transit routers?

In addition to direct forwarding of Internet  traffic, and
handling the communications paths between the  routers
themselves, do transit routers often perform other  functions,
such as handling MPLS?

I would also be curious about  typical transit router models and
interface speeds.

Please respond  off-list if this is too off-topic.
